00:00:55,475 --> 00:00:55,695
There's a

00:00:57,845 --> 00:00:58,665
172, 173.

24
00:00:58,765 --> 00:00:59,835
It's 174.

25
00:01:00,015 --> 00:01:02,615
She's getting jobs right
now as we speak, I think.

26
00:01:02,615 --> 00:01:02,954
Ryan,

27
00:01:03,150 --> 00:01:03,650

00:01:05,180 --> 00:01:05,951
We

30
00:01:06,295 --> 00:01:07,325
I caught up with her

31
00:01:07,493 --> 00:01:08,265
worthy.

32
00:01:08,914 --> 00:01:14,915
in Salt Lake City and this is why
we're having this bonus because the

33
00:01:15,684 --> 00:01:21,545
conversation took a turn when you'll
see this when she brings up Miyazaki.

34
00:01:21,545 --> 00:01:26,005
She brought up Miyazaki and I pounced.

35
00:01:26,590 --> 00:01:28,640
Let's get to, yes, bow down to me as I.

36
00:01:31,350 --> 00:01:33,290

37
00:01:34,229 --> 00:01:35,969
We're here with Ryan Bartley.

38
00:01:36,779 --> 00:01:43,509
Now, if You don't know who she
is, you have played You know what?

39
00:01:43,899 --> 00:01:44,849
How many roles have you been in?

40
00:01:44,849 --> 00:01:44,919
I

41
00:01:45,069 --> 00:01:45,579
don't even know.

42
00:01:45,649 --> 00:01:46,999
I actually do not know.

43
00:01:48,379 --> 00:01:49,329
It's honestly incredible.

44
00:01:49,349 --> 00:01:54,739
Like, I've seen your list of movies,
and it's like every anime made in

45
00:01:54,739 --> 00:01:55,989
the last, what, three, four years?

46
00:01:55,989 --> 00:01:56,439
Thank you.

47
00:01:56,439 --> 00:01:57,009
You're so sweet.

48
00:01:57,019 --> 00:01:57,419
Thank you.

49
00:01:57,839 --> 00:01:59,299
But you're very good at what you do.

50
00:01:59,309 --> 00:02:00,649
You play a lot of these characters.

51
00:02:00,964 --> 00:02:02,464
Did you really enjoy anime?

52
00:02:02,774 --> 00:02:03,574
I, I do.

53
00:02:03,574 --> 00:02:04,484
I love anime.

54
00:02:04,834 --> 00:02:06,934
I, I didn't grow up watching a ton of it.

55
00:02:07,344 --> 00:02:09,694
But I was always a big Pokemon fan.

56
00:02:10,234 --> 00:02:13,674
And, uh, I was, I was a massive
Hello Kitty fan growing up.

57
00:02:13,694 --> 00:02:15,084
That's not really anime.

58
00:02:18,214 --> 00:02:20,904
And yeah, now I get to work
on both of those properties.

59
00:02:20,904 --> 00:02:22,004
It's a dream come true.

60
00:02:22,264 --> 00:02:23,894
Um, but yeah, I'm just super grateful.

61
00:02:23,924 --> 00:02:26,014
And I was always a big
fan of Miyazaki movies.

62
00:02:26,424 --> 00:02:30,620
Miyazaki, now I, like Princess
Mononoke, um, that's Miyazaki, right?

63
00:02:30,620 --> 00:02:31,052
Yeah, yeah.

64
00:02:31,052 --> 00:02:34,004
One of my favorite, well, okay,
so I think as a kid my favorite

65
00:02:34,004 --> 00:02:35,374
was Kiki's Delivery Service.

66
00:02:35,824 --> 00:02:37,924
But, I don't know, it
might be spirited away now.

67
00:02:38,034 --> 00:02:38,749
And you're part of it.

68
00:02:38,749 --> 00:02:40,159
Are you part of Kiki's?

69
00:02:40,429 --> 00:02:41,239
Oh, that's a different Kiki.

70
00:02:41,279 --> 00:02:41,539
That's it.

71
00:02:41,579 --> 00:02:43,859
You're in a Kiki's something, but
that's not the same Kiki from.

72
00:02:44,059 --> 00:02:44,369
Oh, you know what?

73
00:02:44,509 --> 00:02:45,359
That's a different thing.

74
00:02:45,389 --> 00:02:46,469
That's a different Kiki's.

75
00:02:46,469 --> 00:02:46,719
Yeah.

76
00:02:46,719 --> 00:02:47,649
Yeah, but you are.

77
00:02:47,649 --> 00:02:48,759
Good, good memory.

78
00:02:48,759 --> 00:02:49,989
Good, yeah.

79
00:02:49,989 --> 00:02:52,939
But, but you gotta also
mention Howl's Moving Castle.

80
00:02:53,099 --> 00:02:53,989
That movie's incredible.

81
00:02:53,989 --> 00:02:57,129
There's a, I've actually, I'm working
on a project right now, The Witch Movie

82
00:02:57,129 --> 00:03:02,469
Project, and we actually break down Howl's
Moving Castle, I got a local witch, and

83
00:03:02,469 --> 00:03:04,029
me and her are doing a podcast on that.

84
00:03:04,489 --> 00:03:06,499
So when you bring it up, I'm like,
oh my gosh, I know this stuff.

85
00:03:06,499 --> 00:03:07,387
That's very cool.

86
00:03:07,387 --> 00:03:07,683
No,

87
00:03:07,683 --> 00:03:08,219
that's awesome.

88
00:03:08,449 --> 00:03:09,719
But we were in the same boat.

89
00:03:09,739 --> 00:03:11,359
It was like, we didn't grow up with anime.

90
00:03:11,359 --> 00:03:13,419
It's polarizing.

91
00:03:13,499 --> 00:03:14,879
It's either you hate it or love it.

92
00:03:15,509 --> 00:03:16,219
I'm like, why?

93
00:03:16,509 --> 00:03:17,479
I love it now.

94
00:03:17,549 --> 00:03:21,829
I do too, and I think it got a bad
rap for so long that people didn't

95
00:03:21,829 --> 00:03:24,289
like it, and it's like, oh, well I
don't like it either, but you never

96
00:03:24,289 --> 00:03:24,729
watched it.

97
00:03:24,779 --> 00:03:27,649
Well there's also like, you know,
when I was a kid it was harder

98
00:03:27,649 --> 00:03:29,279
to find, now it's everywhere.

99
00:03:29,289 --> 00:03:31,689
You know, we have so many different
ways to watch anime and you can

100
00:03:31,689 --> 00:03:35,339
find, even Disney Plus, like
Hulu, Netflix, every platform has.

101
00:03:35,339 --> 00:03:35,629
Crunchyroll.

102
00:03:35,629 --> 00:03:35,919
Crunchyroll.

103
00:03:35,919 --> 00:03:37,054
Crunchyroll, of course.

104
00:03:37,314 --> 00:03:40,934
You know, but back then, like,
it was either Sailor Moon,

105
00:03:41,334 --> 00:03:42,494
or Pokemon, or that's it.

106
00:03:43,544 --> 00:03:47,484
Or you had to find a VHS tape that was
a bootleg version of a bootleg version.

107
00:03:47,484 --> 00:03:47,649
That's

108
00:03:47,649 --> 00:03:48,144
what I heard.

109
00:03:48,144 --> 00:03:50,034
Yeah, that was like,
maybe even before my time.

110
00:03:50,334 --> 00:03:53,269
But like, that's what I've, I've heard
about the one episode per, per episode.

111
00:03:53,649 --> 00:03:54,989
VHS tape era.

112
00:03:55,019 --> 00:03:55,429
Yeah.

113
00:03:55,529 --> 00:03:56,799
Now, how did you get into this?

114
00:03:56,799 --> 00:03:58,529
Like, is this something you dreamed of?

115
00:03:58,599 --> 00:03:59,169
Did you want to be a kid?

116
00:03:59,189 --> 00:03:59,559
You know what?

117
00:03:59,589 --> 00:04:02,489
I actually have been interested
in voiceover since I was a kid.

118
00:04:02,529 --> 00:04:05,039
Um, I actually started as a, as a tween.

119
00:04:05,049 --> 00:04:06,639
I was working for Radio Disney.

120
00:04:07,239 --> 00:04:09,369
Um, cause they use real
kids to do their voiceover.

121
00:04:09,719 --> 00:04:12,619
Their, their promos and their
commercial spots, you know, so

122
00:04:12,619 --> 00:04:13,889
that's kind of how I started.

123
00:04:13,919 --> 00:04:18,549
Um, but I always really wanted
to do cartoons and I was, I

124
00:04:18,549 --> 00:04:20,039
loved cartoons growing up.

125
00:04:20,039 --> 00:04:25,619
I was into Rugrats and Rocko's Modern
Life, Hey Arnold, Rocket Power, like,

126
00:04:25,949 --> 00:04:28,129
That kind of classic Nickelodeon stuff.

127
00:04:28,129 --> 00:04:28,949
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

128
00:04:28,949 --> 00:04:30,129
I loved those things.

129
00:04:30,199 --> 00:04:35,519
So I, I just always dreamed of like doing
cartoons and I studied really hard and

130
00:04:35,619 --> 00:04:40,359
started taking classes on how to, how to,
how to do cartoon voiceover, um, which

131
00:04:40,359 --> 00:04:43,529
is very different from other kinds, but
yeah, that's kind of how it started.

132
00:04:43,599 --> 00:04:43,719
I

133
00:04:43,729 --> 00:04:47,104
wanted to touch that because a lot
of people think Oh, I could do that.

134
00:04:47,104 --> 00:04:49,064
I could be a voice actor, but
there's a lot that goes into

135
00:04:49,064 --> 00:04:50,024
it.

136
00:04:50,024 --> 00:04:50,514
Yeah, there is.

137
00:04:50,514 --> 00:04:52,884
I mean, I started doing, um, stage work.

138
00:04:52,894 --> 00:04:56,574
So, I was doing musical
theater and plays all as a kid.

139
00:04:56,584 --> 00:04:59,294
And then, um, and dance classes
and all that kind of thing.

140
00:04:59,534 --> 00:05:02,584
And so, you know, I mean,
voice actors are actors.

141
00:05:02,594 --> 00:05:04,764
Like, that really has to
come first and foremost.

142
00:05:04,764 --> 00:05:09,759
So, I always tell people, like, if you
can do plays at school, Or any kind of,

143
00:05:09,779 --> 00:05:13,659
um, theater at all is great training
to get your feet wet in that world.

144
00:05:13,689 --> 00:05:15,779
And it is, it's just, it's acting.

145
00:05:15,779 --> 00:05:17,719
So take an acting class,
take an improv class.

146
00:05:17,729 --> 00:05:19,499
Like, that's a great way
to get into voiceover.

147
00:05:19,569 --> 00:05:22,049
Now let me ask you something
serious because acting does take

148
00:05:22,049 --> 00:05:24,359
a toll on the actor themselves.

149
00:05:24,969 --> 00:05:28,419
How do you deal with anything like
that that might have got you down?

150
00:05:28,929 --> 00:05:30,784
Maybe there's a message
I hope that you can have.

151
00:05:30,904 --> 00:05:32,994
For somebody else out there
listening, what would it be?

152
00:05:33,044 --> 00:05:36,044
You know, it's um, acting
is a lot of rejection.

153
00:05:36,044 --> 00:05:39,124
I tell everybody, uh, that
comes up to me and says, Oh my

154
00:05:39,124 --> 00:05:40,564
gosh, you have so many roles.

155
00:05:40,854 --> 00:05:43,664
And I say, you know, you're
looking at the tip of the iceberg.

156
00:05:43,864 --> 00:05:45,644
This is, all this is this.

157
00:05:46,114 --> 00:05:49,894
And this is what I auditioned
for that I don't book.

158
00:05:50,274 --> 00:05:50,944
You know what I mean?

159
00:05:50,944 --> 00:05:53,039
So, It is a lot of rejection.

160
00:05:53,059 --> 00:05:56,839
It is mentally pretty hard sometimes.

161
00:05:57,129 --> 00:06:00,679
But the thing is, I think what
keeps me going is, you know,

162
00:06:01,989 --> 00:06:03,439
Every job is hard nowadays.

163
00:06:03,439 --> 00:06:04,859
It's hard to get any sort of job.

164
00:06:04,859 --> 00:06:06,689
So you might as well pick
something that you love.

165
00:06:07,289 --> 00:06:08,229
You only live once.

166
00:06:08,419 --> 00:06:09,899
You know, life is very precious.

167
00:06:09,899 --> 00:06:10,729
We only have one life.

168
00:06:11,039 --> 00:06:13,049
Such a tiny amount of time on this earth.

169
00:06:13,419 --> 00:06:17,139
So I I always tell people chase your
dreams You're never too old to start.

170
00:06:17,159 --> 00:06:21,069
First of all, I get people from
all ages asking me am I you

171
00:06:21,069 --> 00:06:23,139
know Could I be a voice actor?

172
00:06:23,139 --> 00:06:26,379
Do you think how do I
break in like am I too old?

173
00:06:26,379 --> 00:06:30,389
Am I too young and I always tell
people no, you're never too old too

174
00:06:30,389 --> 00:06:34,204
young I like I said, I started when I
was a little kid I have a friend who

175
00:06:34,204 --> 00:06:39,234
was in the military and his, he's now
a massively successful voice actor.

176
00:06:39,234 --> 00:06:40,334
He does cons all the time.

177
00:06:40,354 --> 00:06:44,944
He directed me on a video game recently,
um, and he was in the military.

178
00:06:44,944 --> 00:06:46,074
This is his second career.

179
00:06:46,534 --> 00:06:50,594
So he's, he books all those Call of
Duty, all those kind of, all those kind

180
00:06:50,594 --> 00:06:53,724
of video games because he has the real
experience and he really does sound like

181
00:06:53,724 --> 00:06:56,494
he's in that world, you know, when he
gets those auditions, he kills it, you

182
00:06:56,494 --> 00:06:58,614
know, but, but this is his second career.

183
00:06:58,624 --> 00:07:01,984
So I always tell people you're never too
old, you're never too young, you know.

184
00:07:03,094 --> 00:07:06,314
If you have any sort of interest in
this, passion you want to explore, like,

185
00:07:06,924 --> 00:07:11,224
I love what I do, and I want everyone
to be as happy as I am, you know?

186
00:07:11,394 --> 00:07:15,599
But yes, it is a lot of rejection,
but I don't know, you just, you, if

187
00:07:15,599 --> 00:07:19,089
it's worth it to you, you tune that
out and you pick yourself back up.

188
00:07:19,089 --> 00:07:19,789
It's hard though.

189
00:07:19,989 --> 00:07:20,819
It's definitely hard.

190
00:07:20,819 --> 00:07:22,649
You lean on your friends.

191
00:07:22,809 --> 00:07:24,469
I do a lot of meditation.

192
00:07:24,759 --> 00:07:27,599
Um, I'm a Peloton girl.

193
00:07:28,029 --> 00:07:30,349
So, you know, working out can help.

194
00:07:30,349 --> 00:07:31,359
Meditating can help.

195
00:07:31,359 --> 00:07:33,629
One of my coaches, uh, Tony Oliver.

196
00:07:33,679 --> 00:07:35,929
He's, uh, people might know
him as Lupon the Third.

197
00:07:36,159 --> 00:07:39,369
He was also one of my voiceover
teachers and directs me.

198
00:07:39,379 --> 00:07:40,909
He directed the Hunter Hunter dub.

199
00:07:40,919 --> 00:07:41,879
He directs a bunch of stuff.

200
00:07:42,479 --> 00:07:46,099
He tells people, you know, if you're
religious, prayer can help, you know.

201
00:07:46,279 --> 00:07:49,379
There's so many different things
that people can turn to to

202
00:07:49,809 --> 00:07:51,459
help them in those dark times.

203
00:07:52,354 --> 00:07:56,434
But you know, you find what works
for you and you just keep, you just

204
00:07:56,434 --> 00:07:58,684
keep fighting and you never give up.

205
00:07:58,774 --> 00:07:58,894
You

206
00:07:58,894 --> 00:08:01,174
know, r realize there's tomorrow,
there's always a tomorrow.

207
00:08:01,179 --> 00:08:01,984
There is, there is.

208
00:08:02,104 --> 00:08:03,784
The sun is always gonna come back out.

209
00:08:03,784 --> 00:08:07,624
The world's gonna keep spinning, you
know, and it's a hard time to do anything.

210
00:08:07,744 --> 00:08:10,864
It's a hard world to live in
right now, and it's stressful and

211
00:08:10,864 --> 00:08:12,364
there's just so much going on.

212
00:08:12,694 --> 00:08:16,924
But, um, you know, the, the convention
world is, is a safe spot, is a safe place.

213
00:08:17,104 --> 00:08:18,064
We're all family here.

214
00:08:18,069 --> 00:08:18,209
You,

215
00:08:18,304 --> 00:08:20,794
you know, I wanna get into that
because a lot of people here.

216
00:08:21,379 --> 00:08:22,629
These are the outcasts.

217
00:08:22,749 --> 00:08:26,069
These are the nerds, which
used to be a derogatory term.

218
00:08:26,299 --> 00:08:26,839
Not anymore.

219
00:08:26,879 --> 00:08:27,829
I'll say I'm a nerd.

220
00:08:27,829 --> 00:08:28,759
I'll fight anybody that wants to

221
00:08:28,979 --> 00:08:29,319
go against me.

222
00:08:29,829 --> 00:08:30,479
Nerds are cool.

223
00:08:30,499 --> 00:08:30,629
They are.

224
00:08:31,139 --> 00:08:32,739
No, but we're such a family here.

225
00:08:32,739 --> 00:08:33,939
Like, we don't laugh at anyone.

226
00:08:33,939 --> 00:08:35,249
This is an inclusive community.

227
00:08:35,249 --> 00:08:36,249
We're here to have fun.

228
00:08:37,884 --> 00:08:42,024
We're all got our, our strangeness, you
know, but, but it's nothing but love here.

229
00:08:42,044 --> 00:08:44,774
And I want people to come to
a place where they feel like

230
00:08:44,964 --> 00:08:46,874
this is, uh, where you belong.

231
00:08:47,344 --> 00:08:52,024
Yeah, it's a safe place where you can feel
like everyone is just as, as odd as you.

232
00:08:52,214 --> 00:08:53,194
And that's a good thing.

233
00:08:53,224 --> 00:08:53,604
It's

234
00:08:53,604 --> 00:08:55,744
almost like there's a competition
to see who can be the oddest.

235
00:08:56,084 --> 00:08:57,264
You know, it happens.

236
00:08:57,264 --> 00:08:58,164
It happens.

237
00:08:58,164 --> 00:09:00,414
But we're all little
weirdos in our own ways.

238
00:09:00,444 --> 00:09:02,254
And you know, you just embrace that.

239
00:09:02,264 --> 00:09:05,744
And, um, I just love, I love
to see everyone bring that.

240
00:09:05,829 --> 00:09:08,879
Bring them, their unique
selves to, to the table.

241
00:09:08,919 --> 00:09:10,459
Have you ever seen the movie The Craft?

242
00:09:10,869 --> 00:09:11,089
Oh yeah!

243
00:09:11,639 --> 00:09:11,939
Do you?

244
00:09:12,109 --> 00:09:12,499
Yes!

245
00:09:12,719 --> 00:09:15,789
Do you remember when they get off a
bus and the guy tells them, look out

246
00:09:15,789 --> 00:09:19,799
for these weirdos, and she looks at him
and says, we are the weirdos, mister.

247
00:09:20,569 --> 00:09:20,589
Yeah!

248
00:09:21,429 --> 00:09:21,529
What?

249
00:09:22,109 --> 00:09:23,659
That's very relevant right here, right?

250
00:09:23,659 --> 00:09:24,479
We are the weirdos.

251
00:09:24,519 --> 00:09:25,219
And we're proud of it.

252
00:09:25,389 --> 00:09:25,669
That's true.

253
00:09:26,019 --> 00:09:27,599
Let me ask y'all, let me
get out on a happy note.

254
00:09:28,329 --> 00:09:29,649
What do you have coming out now?

255
00:09:29,659 --> 00:09:31,859
You got a video game,
you got a, what's big?

256
00:09:31,869 --> 00:09:32,999
What are you looking forward to?

257
00:09:33,159 --> 00:09:33,789
What can I talk about?

258
00:09:34,129 --> 00:09:34,939
What can I talk about?

259
00:09:35,249 --> 00:09:35,579
That's the

260
00:09:35,589 --> 00:09:36,029
first question.

261
00:09:36,059 --> 00:09:37,779
What can you actually talk
about without getting in

262
00:09:37,779 --> 00:09:38,159
trouble?

263
00:09:38,159 --> 00:09:41,219
I know, I have to shuffle through
my brain, like what is out?

264
00:09:41,419 --> 00:09:42,489
What's been announced?

265
00:09:42,489 --> 00:09:43,529
I know I have to be careful.

266
00:09:43,719 --> 00:09:48,009
I will say, I um, I play the, a lot
of people don't know this, I play the

267
00:09:48,009 --> 00:09:50,649
uh, little, the little Ghostbusters.

268
00:09:50,649 --> 00:09:51,379
Oh,

269
00:09:51,619 --> 00:09:52,799
and the Frozen Empire?

270
00:09:53,119 --> 00:09:53,419
Frozen

271
00:09:53,419 --> 00:09:53,809
empire.

272
00:09:54,229 --> 00:09:55,279
They're these little guys.

273
00:09:56,149 --> 00:09:58,039
You remember the little
min, the little mini puffs?

274
00:09:58,339 --> 00:09:59,299
Little they're called?

275
00:09:59,299 --> 00:10:00,379
They're called Mini Puffs.

276
00:10:00,379 --> 00:10:00,589
Minis.

277
00:10:00,619 --> 00:10:01,669
That's their official name.

278
00:10:01,669 --> 00:10:01,819
Yeah.

279
00:10:01,819 --> 00:10:02,329
That was you.

280
00:10:02,389 --> 00:10:02,689
Yeah.

281
00:10:02,749 --> 00:10:04,039
I, well, there's, it's not just me.

282
00:10:04,039 --> 00:10:05,179
There's a bunch of us that did it.

283
00:10:05,529 --> 00:10:10,079
For this movie a group of us did it,
but I'm one of them and that this

284
00:10:10,079 --> 00:10:12,349
is now streaming I think on Netflix.

285
00:10:12,409 --> 00:10:16,969
Yeah, and it's also on blu ray as of
pretty recently So I'll give a shout

286
00:10:16,969 --> 00:10:18,629
out to Ghostbusters Frozen Empire.

287
00:10:18,659 --> 00:10:18,959
I love

288
00:10:18,999 --> 00:10:21,099
that We actually talked to
Ernie Hudson and he said he had

289
00:10:21,099 --> 00:10:22,209
so much fun making that movie.

290
00:10:22,209 --> 00:10:23,119
He hopes there's another one

291
00:10:24,189 --> 00:10:24,809
That's great to hear.

292
00:10:24,819 --> 00:10:25,219
Would you be

293
00:10:25,219 --> 00:10:25,599
a part of another one?

294
00:10:25,954 --> 00:10:27,374
Oh my gosh, yes, in a heartbeat.

295
00:10:27,374 --> 00:10:28,364
It was so fun.

296
00:10:28,374 --> 00:10:29,984
No, I love the little mini puffs.

297
00:10:30,284 --> 00:10:30,864
They're so cute.

298
00:10:30,894 --> 00:10:32,454
No, it was, we had a
blast working on that.

299
00:10:32,454 --> 00:10:33,314
Call her for the next one.

300
00:10:33,524 --> 00:10:34,514
And I want my agent fee.

301
00:10:34,514 --> 00:10:36,774
Thank you so much.

302
00:10:36,924 --> 00:10:36,984
No,

303
00:10:36,984 --> 00:10:37,284
thank you guys.

304
00:10:38,474 --> 00:10:38,934
Thank you

305
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:44,370
Ryan, I mean, really, thank you so much
for having that conversation with me.

306
00:10:45,230 --> 00:10:49,610
I went in there not really expecting that.

307
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,030
Really, I was with Promise to Live.

308
00:10:52,050 --> 00:10:52,670
Promise to Live.

309
00:10:52,900 --> 00:10:55,950
org is your suicide prevention,
suicide awareness organization.

310
00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:01,400
I went into FanX being a part of
that, being a part of Ride the Wave.

311
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:03,150
And we were looking for messages of hope.

312
00:11:03,170 --> 00:11:05,020
That's why she gave us
a message of hope there.

313
00:11:05,610 --> 00:11:10,820
But the Miyazaki conversation
leading into the anime convo and all

314
00:11:10,820 --> 00:11:13,070
that, I mean, that was incredible.

315
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:14,190
Like, she's, she,

316
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:14,880
kismet.

317
00:11:14,930 --> 00:11:18,430
All at the right place at the right time
and the right conversation was happening.

318
00:11:18,550 --> 00:11:19,490
it really was.

319
00:11:19,530 --> 00:11:22,310
And she, she's incredible.

320
00:11:22,310 --> 00:11:23,470
She really is an anime queen.

321
00:11:23,470 --> 00:11:28,240
Like, I wasn't kidding about her
being on 170 plus different voice,

322
00:11:28,850 --> 00:11:35,620
uh, actor, actor roles in Kiki
Verse, Hello Kitty, Demon Slayer.

323
00:11:36,230 --> 00:11:38,190
She even talked about
that in the interview.

324
00:11:38,210 --> 00:11:43,340
She's like, I, I, have been a
part of my childhood fantasies.

325
00:11:43,350 --> 00:11:43,870
Like this is,

326
00:11:43,935 --> 00:11:44,975
What a career.

327
00:11:44,995 --> 00:11:49,705
I mean, man, I, I would love to be doing
voiceover work or something like that.

328
00:11:49,705 --> 00:11:52,155
I always thought when I was a kid,
I was going to grow up and be an

329
00:11:52,165 --> 00:11:53,755
actress and I was going to do this.

330
00:11:54,405 --> 00:11:55,535
thought it'd be on SNL.

331
00:11:55,615 --> 00:11:58,965
Honestly, I wanted to be the next
Kristen Wiig before Kristen Wiig.

332
00:11:58,995 --> 00:11:59,355
Right?

333
00:11:59,680 --> 00:12:00,550
it's not too late, Courtney.

334
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:01,440
You still got, you

335
00:12:01,655 --> 00:12:03,665
maybe that's in my future, but, uh,

336
00:12:03,810 --> 00:12:04,430
still got a chance.

337
00:12:04,470 --> 00:12:04,920
Listen,

338
00:12:05,395 --> 00:12:06,085
she's had.

339
00:12:06,290 --> 00:12:11,020
it is, and I don't think I did it
on air, but I actually, off air,

340
00:12:11,020 --> 00:12:14,620
I did invite Ryan to the event.

341
00:12:14,680 --> 00:12:20,130
October 26th, Novel Daybreak by
Creighton Communities presents the Witch

342
00:12:20,140 --> 00:12:27,520
Movie Project live podcast taping and
movie screening and costume contest.

343
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:28,520
wouldn't that be amazing?

344
00:12:28,690 --> 00:12:29,720
Oh, man, I invited her.

345
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:30,700
I said, Hey, come on out.

And talk about a message for Hope.

349

these two movies that we did,

350
00:12:37,435 --> 00:12:37,715

and a lot of those movies that she did

00:12:42,940 --> 00:12:48,240
voices for, a lot of hopeful messages
when you talk about messages of hope.

353
00:12:48,270 --> 00:12:49,940
And I hope people get like that.

354
00:12:50,255 --> 00:12:52,795
